Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Two chloroplast regions, matK and trnH-psbA, had significant variation and show promise for barcoding in nutmegs.
- Observation A two-gene approach using matK and trnH-psbA provided resolution among all sampled Compsoneura species, including the recently evolved C. sprucei and C. mexicana.
- Observation Using two regions decreased the range of intraspecific variation relative to interspecific divergence.
- Method / resource In a sequence identification analysis with the two-region approach, 95% of the samples were correctly identified.
